How to Keep Your Resolutions

Well, it's here again, the last day of 2012.  Happy New Year to all my blog readers!  We pray 2013 brings you many blessings. Do you make New Year's Resolutions and, if so, have you kept them?  Studies show that most people who make resolutions, don't keep them.  However, did you know that sharing your goals with others can actually help you keep them?  Why?  Because reaching a goal is difficult.

Day 24: Amazing Grace

This is my all time favorite song! Amazing Grace here sung a capella  by the incredible angelic voice of LeAnn Rimes. I have included this song all five years of the countdown. The crystal clear and rich voice she gives to this song gives me goosebumps. Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found. Was blind, but now I see.   Merry CHRISTmas Eve! I'll be back tomorrow with one more special video for you. Until then... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ If you liked this post, read…Seven Reasons Why YOU Should Sign Up for the Art of Eloquence Newsletter!
